Although R&D expenses be relevant to any company, the IT sector stands out in this way, since these companies make constant investments in these intangibles in order to develop solutions and systems for their clients, so, this study aimed to verify the relevance of R&D expenses for companies in the IT sector listed in B3 between 2010 and 2018. Regressions were performed by least absolute deviations considering the stock price as response variable and R&D expenses as explanatory variable. In addition, complementary analyzes were made using logistic regressions. It was always considered a confidence level of 95%. Our results show that R&D expenses explain the variation in stock prices, as expected. The positive sign indicates that investments in these intangibles increase the market value of IT companies, however, there are limits to these benefits. An interesting comparative is that, for the electric sector, target of the study of Alves, Silva, Macedo, and Marques (2011), R&D expenses did not indicate predictive power against stock prices. This confirms the relevance of this measure to the IT sector given its importance to the activities of these companies. Although there is a common sense of the relevance of R&D expenses for the IT sector, there was no literature that would provide such evidence in an empirical way. This research fills this gap and denotes greater relevance of the accounting information regarding R&D expenses for investors of B3 IT companies.

The aim of the study was to investigate the investors’ opinions concerning the usefulness of behavioral factors for investment decisions. The research was carried out in the group of 100 investors, using the services of five brokerages with a long history of operation. The results of the research show that people’s psychological conditions and sentiment in the stock market play an important role in the decision-making process of investors in the capital market. The importance of this factor increased with the length of the investment period. The emotional states of people and their psychological conditions affect the stock price volatility. However, the complexity of the determinants of stock prices makes the market value of stocks can be affected by many factors at the same time and investors seem aware of this.

AbstractThis study investigates the stock price–economic activity nexus in 12 member countries of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) by employing monthly data over the period 1981:1–2018:3. For this purpose, the study uses Granger causality in the frequency domain in the panel setting by decomposing the symmetric and asymmetric fluctuations. This methodology determines whether the predictive power of interested variables is concentrated on quickly, moderately, or slowly fluctuating components. Our findings show that the stock prices have predictive power for future long-term economic activity in the panel setting. However, economic activity has more reliable information for stock prices for negative components. Additionally, empirical findings for asymmetric shocks are not fully consistent with those of symmetric ones. Besides, the country-specific results provide different causal linkages across members and frequencies. These findings may provide valuable information for policymakers to design proper and effective policies in OECD countries regarding the stock market and economic activity nexus.

Distortion of information is one of the inherent accounting risks in financial statements. Financial statements are one of the fundamental sources of information that can be used in investment decision making in the Indonesia stock exchange. If investors use this information, then investors also have the same risk that is the distortion of information contained in financial statements. This research tries to test whether stock prices can be more explained through alternative accounting information or information contained in financial statements. This research was conducted using a sequential explanatory mixed method. Using data on companies listed in the Business 27 index, tested using path analysis through multiple regression models, the results of this research indicate that alternative accounting information has not been able to explain variations in stock price changes compared to accounting information contained in financial statements. Meanwhile, the results of the analysis using qualitative data indicate there is a match between the results of quantitative analysis and qualitative analysis.

This research investigates the relation between forecasting report disclosure and stock price fluctuations. The first hypothesize examine if there is a relation between two variables among companies which lead to fluctuation in the stock price and the second hypothesize examined these variables over research industries. Capital market reacts to new information in most cases- at least one month before the official date of the disclosure. We found evidence of fluctuation in stock prices before disclosure indicate that information was released to the market before official disclosure. In the other word, stock prices react to the unofficially released information and rumors to the market around the releasing new officially disclosure date. This fraudulent attempt was initiated by price manipulation in cases which we don't see significant price change during forecasted disclosure even if there are significant change in reported earning values. This investigation indicates that there is a significant relationship between releasing forecasted information and stock price fluctuations in the selected listed companies in TSE.

This study examined the usefulness of the cash-based interest coverage ratio (CICR). It also verified the usefulness of accrual-based interest coverage ratio (AICR), which is used as a criterion for exiting insolvent companies. This paper analyzed whether the value relevance of earnings to stock price differs according to various interest coverage ratios. The CICR is measured by dividing the cash generated from operations by the interest payments. AICR is measured by operating income divided by interest expenses. The research model for the hypothesis test of this study is based on the Ohlson model, which has been used for the test of stock value relevance in many previous studies. As a result of the empirical analysis, the CICR is used as useful information by the investors in the capital market. CICR is used as useful information in the capital market as an indicator of sustainability of profits. This study suggests that supervisors and financial institutions can make rational decision-making if they consider AICR and CICR as criteria for exiting insolvent companies. The contribution of this study was to suggest that the CICR can be a useful indicator for determining whether a company is insolvent due to its relatively low forecast error and high predictability.
